Update Log
swinging pendulum clock for garfield!! i thought abt making it show the current time but then i came 2 my senses. so it does not do that.
also a few other small merch upd8s. ive b33n trying 2 get accur8 info on the merch im adding but its rly hard actually, a lot of stuff has ©1978 on it but thats NOT when it was made :'33
simple user purrofile now exist at /u/username (e.g. /u/codecreature)! this serves zero purrpose i just wanted to learn how 2 do it. uses bbcode if u wanna get fancy with it!!
u can also set a color style 4 ur purrofile, chat username, etc
finally, a couple new emojis added 2 the bbcode :33c
option added to the user settings page to make gameplay activity private! this means your gameplay stats won't show up in leaderboards, recent activity, etc. just in case anyone wants the benefits of logged in play without being subjected to the mortifying ordeal of being known 
the warnings page has some new functionality plus a css rewrite!!
now supports opt-in page-specific warnings, so if u dont want 2 b subjected 2 the kind of intense visual assault u get on pages like graphix, u can still browse the rest of the site no purroblem :33
also so many things abt the old css were driving me insane so we just. redid it. it was so old and weird that doing it from scratch was faster lol. the biggest deal 2 me purrsonally is that it uses 100% javascript-free css styling, INCLUDING the borders behind the robo cat and the top banner!! u do not wanna know how much misery we experienced over those when we furst attempted it
mobile layout is also a lil easier 2 use i think
theres a few more visual things we might upd8 someday but at least the most important things r done
chat bbcode now supports custom emojis! very small set for now, will probably add more at some point in the future
the right click message menu now includes a copy option
also hopefully fixed a bug with sending messages via the enter key on mobile
worm race now has seasons in addition to the all-time race!!!!
this has been the goal for an extremely long time and i'm really pleased to have finally had the time to do it. i think this should make the whole experience more rewarding, especially if ur fav worm hasn't done well in the past!
the beta race season will run until the end of may, after which it will start a standard 3 month season cycle with summer 2026.
in addition 2 the obvious updates needed for the new features, u may notice some very minor visual changes on existing areas. nothing too jarring i think
the only big thing left to do, other than fix any bugs this update causes, is to make a trophy case for each worm to display a consolidated list of its wins. then i'll be fully shifting gears 2 other projects indefinitely - finishing the fishing minigame maybe?
assuming everything worked correctly, you should be able to delete or edit your own chat messages and report messages from other users! currently accessed via right-clicking; will create a better and more accessible system later. mods and admins also have the ability to delete other users' messages, though that means nothing to most of you.
i don't currently feel like doing the work necessary to prevent certain kinds of malicious behavior, so logged out users don't have permission to edit or delete their own messages.
also fixed it so the page doesn't refresh when you send a message. neat
users can now set their pronouns for the chats!
16 character limit but otherwise freestyling it.
made a simple navigation/hub page for chatrooms so they're accessible from a central location!
we've moved to a slightly different hosting plan (heliohost's morty server) that should have near-zero downtime. no more 502 bad gateway errors (hopefully!!)
